Kieron Pollard hit an unbeaten 87 off 34 balls to power Mumbai Indians to a thrilling four-wicket Indian Premier League win over old rivals Chennai Super Kings on Saturday.
Chennai seemed to be coasting to victory when the West Indies star came in, with Mumbai needing 138 from 10 overs to beat their opponents 218 for four.
Pollard smashed eight sixes and six fours to lead the unlikely charge against one of the title favourites.
After Faf du Plessis dropped one Pollard hit, Mumbai needed 16 off the last over.
Pollard hit two fours, then a six off the penultimate ball and ran two off the last delivery to complete one of the closest wins in IPL history.
